I only read Punk 57 because it was what my friend group decided to read together as our "book club" book. I would have loved this book in high school but as an adult I found Ryen and Misha insufferable. The story really had a great premise but what evolved from that was a mess. It really was like reading the fanfiction writings of a highschooler and it felt weird reading it as someone who has been out of high school for many years. Cringey, problematic...just not a good book.
